Because you're staying in hotels, you don't need to worry about showering with your clothes on, washing clothes in sinks, washing clothes in rivers and lakes, etc.
Most hotels have laundry facilities in the hotel itself. Choose clothes you can wash and dry in the machines ... and yes, you should be able to wash and dry your bibshorts.
Bring a pair of light basketball shorts or something similar to put on while you're washing everything else.
On a 10-15 day tour, you could probably get away with doing laundry 2-3 times.
